Hi guys,
At 1&1 we actually haven't used db_cassandra, but were aware of some of
its shortcomings (e.g. thrift interface).
Do you consider Cassandra is stable and easy enough to maintain so as to
use it as usrloc back-end? Are you
also considering other alternatives?
Have a nice day,
Lucian

Let's see if someone chimes in. Not sure if Anca is
still involved, or
if/how it's actually used at 1&1 or anywhere else.
For me it is ok to introduce a new module as
well, the old one can be
removed afterwards if the new one overtakes it in features.
Makes sense, although
I doubt someone is using it with recent Kamailio
versions due to the issues at least I encountered with it.
The new module in itself will be a drop-in replacement of the current
one (so we could re-use the same name but rewriting it from scratch),
the only limitation I can see for now is that it won't support cassandra
version older than 1.2 due to lack of cql support. So having a grace
period (or a parallel module with a different name) is fine with me.
Perhaps is
good to just replace it with a fresh implementation. I don't
think there will be much (any) use of the old version. Anyhow, the old
module can be moved to obsolete folder and if someone needs to work with
an older lib, it can be rescue it from there.
Cheers,
Daniel
